2mg a day is often the iniating dose for major thought disorders, with a usual range of 4-6mgs day.

This .25 dose did the trick partially, but I think a slightly larger one would be better..25 may kick it, if given some time, (try dissolving it sublingually) but i wouldn't worry over .5-1mg, a Psynurse told me 1mg is low dose, where she frequently sees up -8mgs being used, i wonder if you have experienced any movement disorder type symptoms?.
Good luck, thoes ruminating, merry go round thoughts can be nasty. Let us know how it goes?
